Christian Picciolini was a Nazi/Skinhead leader who has transformed his life, and now dedicates it to helping others transform theirs. His is an important story of compassion, and focusing on our similarities rather than our differences, and he's here to share it.

"I felt as though I was part of something bigger than myself." - Christian

Talk around the topic of medical marijuana can get heated, but are there medical benefits to the plant that could potentially help veterans? Ex-marine @JoePlenzler is here to explain the American Legion's stance on the matter, and why they feel more research needs to be done to separate fact from fiction.

"To me, if it matters to one veteran, it's compelling. I'm up to 6 veterans who have told me the only reason they're alive today is they had access to cannbis."

This campaign is about erasing the lines between us rather than darkening them. To do that we need to get back to listening to one another, which is why my first guest of the relaunch is DEAN CAIN AKA "SUPERMAN", a good guy I don't see eye to eye with on everything, but who I've always been able to talk to about anything.

"When you actually talk and exchange ideas, you can find that common ground."

I'm running for congress in Tennessee's 7th district against 16-year incumbent Marsha Blackburn. From now until next November this podcast will be an extension of the campaign, and will explore the issues facing our district, and America.

In this episode I try to explain a little about why I'm doing this. Next up: Dean Cain aka "Superman"

North Korea is an enigma. We know they have nuclear weapons, and we know they're a highly controlled society run by a madman who comes from a long line of them... but what do we know about what actually goes on there? The society? The people?

Not much. Lucky for us, Suki Kim (@sukisworld) bravely went undercover as an Evangelical English teacher for 6 months, and is here to tell us about her experience.

"Knowledge in that world is dangerous. Truth is dangerous. What goes on there is worse than my worst nightmare."

Legendary singer Kurt Cobain shot himself in the head in 1994. Or did he? Some don't think so, including Courtney Love's father Hank Harrison, who once managed the Grateful Dead, and explains why he thinks his daughter Courtney Love had a hand in her husband's death.

Every movie's a miracle... This season of HBO's "Project Greenlight" showed yet again how painful the behind-the-scenes process of making a movie can be.

But forget Greenlight-- in this episode of GET IT GOT IT GOOD director Jeff Kanew (Revenge of the Nerds, Troop Beverly Hills, Natural Enemies) shares the NEVER BEFORE TOLD BEHIND-THE-SCENES STORY of how he found - and lost - Dead Poets Society.

Former United States ambassador to Iraq Joe Wilson talks about how the Bush administration exposed the identity of his wife Valerie Plame, a covert CIA agent, in retaliation for his having exposed their lies about Saddam and the WMD's.

Joe also explains his support for the Iran Deal, and why Republicans are "engaged in sedition" and not fit to lead.

Former United States ambassador to Iraq Joe Wilson talks about being sent to Africa by Vice President Cheney and the CIA to look for evidence that Saddam Hussein had purchased materials to make Weapons of Mass Destruction... finding none... and realizing the Bush administration lied us into war.

Steve Silberman (@stevesilberman), author of "NEUROTRIBES", a new book about #Autism the New York times calls "Beautifully told, humanizing, and important", explains why we need to change the way we think about #Autism as a society- focusing more on services and helping people on the spectrum lead happy, productive lives than finding a cure. He also offers a very sensible reason why the recent surge in diagnoses isn't an "epidemic" as some would have us believe.

Dean Cain (@RealDeanCain) is mostly conservative. Justin's VERY liberal. In this episode they go toe-to-toe on a variety of topics- everything from The Iran Deal to Global Warming to Police Brutality to whether or not Fox News is geared towards Republicans.

The one thing they both agree on is the more tolerant everyone can be of each other's opinions the better-- but man that's hard sometimes.

The #SandraBland case has presented far more questions than answers-- Did she really hang herself with bail money on the way, a new job waiting for her, and a newly found purpose in life? Or was she murdered by racist cops in a racist town?

Shaun King (@ShaunKing) of The Daily Kos and JusticeTogether.org weighs in on how little of the case adds up, how Sandy's different from other hashtags, and how as a father of 4 daughters this changed his outlook on things. Follow Shaun, go to the Justice Together site to join the fight against a broken system... and question everything.

Carmen talks about being raised Christian in the Bible Belt, then coming to LA, marrying the actor Jason Lee at a young age, and finding herself deep in the heart of Scientology. After years of harrassment and isolation, Carmen has finally found the strength to talk about her experience.

"It's like you truly live in a fishbowl- you don't know there's an ocean out there." - Carmen
